The Waterloo Cup

[Gos 4]

Hello people since the hunting act has been in place obviously the waterloo cup does not take place in England any longer. Am i correct in thinking that it now takes places in Irleand? For some reason Killkenny rings a bell?

 

Regards

Only organised coursing i know of that takes place here is in febuary, at clonmel, Co, Tip, which is in my opinion, no where, as good as what the waterloo cup was.

Their is other smaller fixtures around the counntry during the year, but this is the final big event of the year.

Frank have you been to the warterloo cup since it was moved to ireland?. and have you got any pics from the event i went to the very last one in england but dident take any pictures there was bloody loads of trouble there police cars being toppled over cans of beer being thrown about. antis spoil fuking everything

As far as I know, and I'm open to correction by the coursing lads, the Clonmel event is and always has been it's own, and by that I mean it wasn't created as a substitute for the Waterloo cup.

 

The Clonmel coursing is "park", as opposed to the open coursing at the Waterloo cup. I know many people come over from the UK to watch and to enter dogs, more so now than before naturally.

you could be right there mate i dont know alot about the coursing in ireland but when the warterloo cup was banned in england it moved to ireland so it has got a good job of being 2 seperate coursing events. frank will put us right on this one as i no he is into his coursing, come on frank put us straight

The waterloo cup is not in Ireland, and Clonmel is a totally separate event and always has been

The Waterloo Cup doesn't exist anymore; Shashi was the last winner; There was talk of moving it to Ireland or Portugal, but nothing came of it. I understand that a few of the top dogs, including Hardy Admiral, ran a small stake in Ireland, but it was never supposed to be, or replace, the Waterloo Cup.

Cheers.
